The ONLY reason I still use soulseek is weird obscure shit you can't find anywhere else. I'm talking some folk-punk singer songwriter from bumfuck, Indiana who toured the country twice in a 3yr span and disappeared into obscurity by 2008. You won't find that anywhere except local record shops in that town, or slsk in my experience.
ah. most of the obscure/niche stuff that I listen to music-wise are japanese doujin circles which I couldn't find on soulseek at all.
You haven’t run into traders or hoarders in that circle?
Not really? Most stuff nowadays is shared on discord and a couple major doujin sites, along with vk. all free. no-one is hiding/trading anything, just sharing what they have. Though, Japanese people in particular aren't exactly the pirate types so it's all westerners doing it.
That’s good. Maybe it’s a less toxic scene
